This application is a continuation application of PCT Patent Application No. PCT/CN2020/123826, entitled “PACKET LOSS HIDING METHOD AND APPARATUS, STORAGE MEDIUM, AND COMPUTER DEVICE” and filed on Oct. 27, 2020, which claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 202010082432.7, entitled “PACKET LOSS HIDING METHOD AND APPARATUS, STORAGE MEDIUM, AND COMPUTER DEVICE” filed with the China National Intellectual Property Administration on Feb. 7, 2020, the entire contents of both of which are incorporated herein by reference.

FIELD OF THE TECHNOLOGY

The present disclosure relates to the field of network communication technologies, and in particular, to a packet loss concealment method and apparatus, a storage medium, and a computer device.

BACKGROUND OF THE DISCLOSURE

A packet loss inevitably occurs during speech transmission, and the packet loss is one of the main reasons affecting the speech call quality. A packet loss concealment technology refers to the use of a synthesized speech data packet to compensate for a lost packet, thereby reducing the impact of a packet loss on the speech quality during transmission.

In a conventional packet loss concealment solution, when a packet loss occurs, a pitch period is obtained by estimating a previous frame of a signal of the packet loss, and a final pitch period waveform signal of the previous frame is copied to a frame position of the packet loss. In the foregoing solution, it is assumed that the position of the packet loss is extremely close to the previous frame of a signal of the packet loss. However, actually, there is a quite high probability that there is a difference between adjacent speech signals, and all subtle differences may be perceived by human ears. Therefore, the speech call quality is poor.

FIG. 1 is a diagram of an application environment of a packet loss concealment method in an embodiment. Referring to FIG. 1, the packet loss concealment method is applied to a packet loss concealment system. The packet loss concealment system includes a terminal 110, a base station system 120, and a terminal 130. The terminal 110, the base station system 120, and the terminal 130 are connected through a mobile communication network (as shown in FIG. 1). In addition, the terminal 110, the base station system 120, and the terminal 130 may alternatively be connected through a computer network (not shown in FIG. 1). The terminal 110 serves as a receiving end, and the terminal 130 serves as a sending end. The terminal 110 receives a speech data packet sent by the terminal 130 through the base station system 120 and another transmission network; determines a speech power spectrum of speech data in the speech data packet in response to determining, according to the speech data packet, that a packet loss occurs; performs lost frame prediction on the speech power spectrum by using a neural network model, to obtain a lost frame power spectrum; and determines restored speech data according to the speech power spectrum and a predicted lost frame power spectrum.

The terminal 110 and the terminal 130 may be specifically desktop terminals or mobile terminals, and the mobile terminal may be specifically at least one of a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a notebook computer, and the like. The base station system 120 may be a wireless transceiver system of a 2G, 3G, 4G, or 5G communication network.

As shown in FIG. 2, in an embodiment, a packet loss concealment method is provided. In this embodiment, description is provided mainly by using an example in which the method is applied to the terminal 110 in FIG. 1. Referring to FIG. 2, the packet loss concealment method specifically includes the following steps:

S202. Receive a speech data packet.

The speech data packet may be a speech data packet obtained by encapsulating speech data to be sent according to a communication protocol before the sending end sends the speech data. The communication protocol may be a protocol such as a real-time transport protocol (RTP), a transmission control protocol (TCP), or a user datagram protocol (UDP).

In an embodiment, the terminal receives a speech data packet sent in real time by the sending end through a mobile communication network or a computer network. Each speech data packet may be provided with a corresponding packet serial number. For example, a packet serial number is provided in a packet header.

S204. Determine a speech power spectrum of speech data in the speech data packet in response to determining, according to the speech data packet, that a packet loss occurs.

In an embodiment, S204 may specifically include: transforming, by the terminal, speech data in the speech data packet, to obtain a speech power spectrum according to a transform result.

The transform may include discrete Fourier transform, bark domain transform, and Mel scale transform. In addition, the transform may further include linear frequency domain transform and equivalent rectangular bandwidth (ERB) scale transform. The speech data may be pulse code modulation (PCM) speech data.

Therefore, S204 may be divided in the following transform manners for description.

Manner 1: Performing Fourier Transform.

In an embodiment, S204 may specifically include: decoding, by the terminal, the speech data packet, to obtain speech data; performing Fourier transform on the speech data, to obtain frequency domain speech data; and calculating power values of frequency points according to the frequency domain speech data, to obtain a speech power spectrum in a linear frequency domain, and then performing S206.

In an embodiment, before the step of performing Fourier transform on the speech data, the method may further include: framing, by the terminal, the speech data; and then windowing the framed speech data, to obtain windowed speech data for buffering.

For example, the speech data is framed with a window length of 20 ms as one frame, and the framed speech data is then windowed by using a window function. The window function may be a rectangular window function, a Hamming window function, a Hamming window function, a Blackman window function, or the like. The Hamming window function is used as an example. The window function is as follows:

${{win}(n)} = {{0.5} \times \left( {1 + {\cos\left( {2\pi\frac{n}{N - 1}} \right)}} \right)}$ $n\mspace{14mu}{belonging}\mspace{14mu}{{{to}\mspace{14mu}\left\lbrack {{- \frac{N - 1}{2}},\frac{N - 1}{2}} \right\rbrack}.}$

After speech data is windowed, the windowed speech data x(n)win(n) is obtained, and discrete Fourier transform is then performed on the windowed speech data x(n)win(n) by using a discrete Fourier transform formula, to obtain frequency domain speech data. The frequency domain speech data is shown as follows:

${{X\left( {i,k} \right)} = {{\sum\limits_{n = 0}^{N - 1}{{x(n)}{{win}(n)}e^{{- j}\frac{2\pi\;{nk}}{N}}\mspace{14mu} k}} = 1}},2,3,\ldots,N$

i corresponding to a frame serial number, k corresponding to a frequency point index value, and N being a window length (that is, a total quantity of sample points in a single window).

Then, the terminal calculates a speech power spectrum according to the frequency domain speech data, and the calculated speech power spectrum is as follows:

S(i,k)=|X(i,k)|² k=1,2,3, . . . ,N

Manner 2: Performing Fourier Transform and Bark Domain Transform.

In an embodiment, the terminal decodes the speech data packet, to obtain speech data; performs Fourier transform on the speech data, to obtain frequency domain speech data; and calculates power values of frequency points according to the frequency domain speech data, to obtain a speech power spectrum in a linear frequency domain. The terminal performs bark domain transform on the speech power spectrum in a linear frequency domain, to obtain a speech power spectrum in a bark domain, and then performs S206.

In an embodiment, the terminal may then perform average calculation on power spectrum values in bark domain sub-bands according to 24 bark domains (where a frequency domain criticality is defined as shown in Table 1) simulated based on an auditory filter proposed by Eberhanrd Zwicker, to obtain a speech power spectrum in a bark domain.

TABLE 1 24 critical frequency bands Critical Cut-off frequency Center frequency Band- band (Hz) (Hz) width 20 1 50 100 80 2 150 200 100 3 250 300 100 4 350 400 100 5 450 510 110 6 570 630 120 7 700 770 140 8 840 920 150 9 1000 1080 160 10 1170 1270 190 11 1370 1480 210 12 1600 1720 240 13 1850 2000 280 14 2150 2320 320 15 2500 2700 380 16 2900 3150 450 17 3400 3700 550 18 4000 4400 700 19 4800 5300 900 20 5800 6400 1100 21 7000 7700 1300 22 8500 9500 1800 23 10500 12000 2500 24 13500 15500 3500

In an embodiment, the terminal performs bark domain transform on the speech power spectrum in a linear frequency domain by using a bark domain transform formula, to obtain the speech power spectrum in a bark domain, the bark domain transform formula being as follows:

${S_{bark}\left( {i,m} \right)} = {\frac{1}{{f_{top}(m)} - {f_{bottom}(m)} + 1} \times {\sum\limits_{j = {f_{bottom}{(m)}}}^{f_{top}{(m)}}{S\left( {i,j} \right)}}}$

m being a bark sub-band serial number, f_(top)(m) and f_(bottom)(m) being respectively an upper limit of a cut-off frequency and a lower limit of the cut-off frequency of a linear frequency corresponding to an m^(th) sub-band in the bark domain, and S(i,j) being the speech power spectrum in a linear frequency domain. For example, for a sub-band serial number 1, a corresponding upper limit of the cut-off frequency is f_(top)(m)=100, and a corresponding lower limit of the cut-off frequency is f_(top)(m)=100. For a sub-band serial number 2, a corresponding upper limit of the cut-off frequency is f_(bottom)(m)=100, and a corresponding lower limit of the cut-off frequency is f_(top) (m)=200.

Method 3: Performing Fourier Transform and Mel Scale Transform.

In an embodiment, the terminal decodes the speech data packet, to obtain speech data; performs Fourier transform on the speech data, to obtain frequency domain speech data; and calculates power values of frequency points according to the frequency domain speech data, to obtain a speech power spectrum in a linear frequency domain. The terminal performs Mel scale transform on the speech power spectrum in a linear frequency domain, to obtain a speech power spectrum in a Mel scale, and then performs S206.

The terminal calculates the corresponding power spectrum, obtains a logarithmic value of the power spectrum to obtain a logarithmic power spectrum, inputs the logarithmic power spectrum into a triangular filter in a Mel scale, and obtains a Mel frequency cepstrum coefficient through discrete cosine transform. The obtained Mel frequency cepstrum coefficient is as follows:

${{C(n)} = {\sum\limits_{m = 1}^{N - 1}{{S\left( {i,m} \right)}\;\cos\;\left( \frac{\pi{n\left( {m - {0.5}} \right)}}{M} \right)}}},{n = 1},{2\mspace{14mu}\ldots\mspace{14mu} L}$

The foregoing logarithmic energy is brought into the discrete cosine transform, to find a Mel frequency cepstrum parameter in an L order, where the L order refers to an order of the Mel frequency cepstrum coefficient, and may range from 12 to 16. M refers to a quantity of triangular filters.

S206. Perform lost frame prediction on the speech power spectrum by using a neural network model, to obtain a lost frame power spectrum.

The neural network model may be a convolutional neural network (CNN) model, a recurrent neural network (RNN) model, a deep neural network (DNN) model, or another network model. The neural network model is obtained by training speech data samples corresponding to quantities of packet losses, that is, is obtained by training a corresponding neural network model by using speech data samples with different quantities of packet losses. For example, when one packet loss occurs in a speech data sample, a neural network model 1 is trained by using the speech data sample; and when two consecutive packet losses (for example, packets with packet serial numbers 2 and 3) occur in a speech data sample, a neural network model 2 is trained by using the speech data sample, and the rest is deduced by analogy.

S208. Determine restored speech data according to the speech power spectrum and a predicted lost frame power spectrum.

In an embodiment, S208 may specifically include: performing inverse transform corresponding to the foregoing transform on the speech power spectrum and the predicted lost frame power spectrum, to obtain restored speech data.

Because three transform manners are used when the speech data is transformed, inverse transform manners corresponding to the three transform manners need to be used when inverse transform corresponding to the transform is performed on the speech power spectrum and the predicted lost frame power spectrum.

Manner 1: Performing Fourier Inverse Transform.

In an embodiment, the terminal obtains phase information of speech data of a previous frame of the lost packet during the Fourier transform; performs inverse transform corresponding to the transform on the speech power spectrum; and performs Fourier inverse transform by combining the phase information with the lost frame power spectrum. In some embodiments, the previous frame of the lost packet/frame may refer to a frame immediately preceding the lost packet/frame.

For example, if the speech power spectrum is S(i,k)=|X(i,k)|², k=1, 2, 3, . . . , N, speech data

${X\left( {i,k} \right)} = {\sum\limits_{n = 0}^{N - 1}{{x(n)}{{win}(n)}e^{{- j}\frac{2\pi\;{nk}}{N}}}}$

in a time domain may be obtained after the Fourier inverse transform.

Method 2: Performing Fourier Inverse Transform and Bark Domain Inverse Transform.

In an embodiment, the terminal separately performs bark domain inverse transform on the speech power spectrum and the predicted lost frame power spectrum; performs Fourier inverse transform on the speech power spectrum through the bark domain inverse transform; and performs Fourier inverse transform by combining phase information and the lost frame power spectrum through the bark domain inverse transform, the phase information being the phase information of the previous frame of speech data of the packet loss, to obtain restored speech data.

Manner 3: Performing Fourier Inverse Transform and Mel Scale Inverse Transform.

In an embodiment, the terminal separately performs Mel scale inverse transform on the speech power spectrum and the predicted lost frame power spectrum; performs Fourier inverse transform on the speech power spectrum through the Mel scale inverse transform; and performs Fourier inverse transform by combining phase information with the lost frame power spectrum through the Mel scale inverse transform, the phase information being the phase information of the previous frame of speech data of the packet loss, to obtain restored speech data.

In the foregoing embodiment, a speech power spectrum is determined by using speech data in the received speech data packet, and lost frame prediction is performed on the speech power spectrum by using the neural network model to obtain a lost frame power spectrum, so that a lost frame power spectrum corresponding to the speech data of the packet loss may be obtained, and restored speech data is obtained by using the speech power spectrum and the predicted lost frame power spectrum, thereby avoiding that a final pitch period waveform signal of a previous frame is directly copied to a frame position of the packet loss (i.e., position of the lost frame), and further avoiding the problem of the poor speech quality caused by a difference between adjacent speech signals. Consequently, the speech call quality is effectively improved.

In an embodiment, as shown in FIG. 3, the method further includes the following steps:

S302. Receive a speech data packet.

For S302, refer to S202 in the foregoing embodiment.

S304 a. Determine a packet loss parameter according to the received speech data packet in response to determining, according to the speech data packet, that a packet loss occurs.

The packet loss refers to a situation of the speech data packet being inevitably lost during transmission. The packet loss parameter may be a quantity of packet losses or a packet loss rate.

In an embodiment, the terminal determines, according to packet serial numbers of the speech data packets, whether the packet loss occurs in the received speech data packets, and determines a quantity of packet losses according to the packet serial numbers in response to determining, according to the speech data packets, that a packet loss occurs. Each speech data packet may be provided with a corresponding packet serial number. For example, a packet serial number is provided in a packet header.

For example, assuming that the sending end sends speech data packets with packet serial numbers 1 to 10 respectively, if the speech data packets with the packet serial numbers 1 to 8 and 10 are received, the terminal may determine that the speech data packet with the packet serial number 9 is lost, and a quantity of packet losses is 1.

S304 b. in response to determining, according to the speech data packets, that a packet loss occurs, obtain current network state information, and select a corresponding neural network model according to the network state information.

Network state refers to a strong/weak state or a stable state of a network signal, such as a strong/weak network signal, or a stable (and strong) or an unstable network signal. Correspondingly, the network state information refers to strong/weak state information of the network signal.

When the network state information is the strong network signal or the stable network signal, the speech data packet is not easily lost during transmission; and when the network state information is the weak network signal or the unstable network signal, the speech data packet is easily lost during transmission. The terminal selects a corresponding neural network model according to the network state information, and may obtain a neural network model that meets a current packet loss situation, so that a lost frame power spectrum may be effectively predicted.

S306. Transform the speech data in the speech data packet, to obtain a speech power spectrum according to a transform result.

For S306, refer to S204 in the foregoing embodiment.

S308. Select a selected neural network model, and perform lost frame prediction on the speech power spectrum by using the neural network model, to obtain a predicted lost frame power spectrum.

The foregoing quantity of packet losses refers to a quantity of consecutive packet losses in the received speech data packets, and the quantity is a maximum value in all quantities of packet losses. For example, assuming that the sending end sends speech data packets with packet serial numbers 1 to 10, if the receiving end receives the speech data packets the with packet serial numbers 1 to 8 and 10, the quantity of packet losses is 1; if the receiving end receives the speech data packets with the packet serial numbers 1 to 7 and 10, the quantity of packet losses is 2; and if the receiving end receives the speech data packets with the packet serial numbers 1 to 5, 8, and 10, the quantity of packet losses is 2.

The neural network model is obtained by training speech data samples corresponding to quantities of packet losses, that is, is obtained by training a corresponding neural network model by using speech data samples with different quantities of packet losses. Therefore, different quantities of packet losses correspond to different neural network models. For example, when one packet loss occurs in a speech data sample, a neural network model 1 is trained by using the speech data sample; and when two consecutive packet losses (for example, packets with packet serial numbers 2 and 3) occur in a speech data sample, a neural network model 2 is trained by using the speech data sample, and the rest is deduced by analogy.

S310. Determine restored speech data according to the speech power spectrum and the predicted lost frame power spectrum.

For S310, refer to S208 in the foregoing embodiment.

In the foregoing embodiment, different quantities of packet losses correspond to different neural network models. When the quantity packet losses is determined, a lost frame power spectrum is predicted by selecting a corresponding neural network model, to effectively compensate for packet losses with various quantities of packet losses, thereby effectively improving the speech call quality.

In an embodiment, as shown in FIG. 4, the method may further include the following steps:

S402. Obtain a speech power spectrum sample, the speech power spectrum sample being obtained by transforming a speech data sample in which one or more consecutive packets are lost.

The speech power spectrum sample is a sample obtained by using a speech power spectrum in which one or more consecutive packets are lost, or is a sample obtained by performing Fourier transform on speech data in which one or more consecutive packets are lost, or is a sample obtained by performing Fourier transform and bark domain transform on speech data in which one or more consecutive packets are lost, or is a sample obtained by performing Fourier transform and Mel scale transform on speech data in which one or more consecutive packets are lost.

In an embodiment, the terminal obtains the speech data sample in which the one or more consecutive packets are lost; performs Fourier transform on the speech data sample, to obtain trained frequency domain speech data; and calculates power values of frequency points according to the trained frequency domain speech data, to obtain a speech power spectrum sample in a linear frequency domain.

In another embodiment, the terminal obtains the speech data sample in which the one or more consecutive packets are lost; performs Fourier transform on the speech data sample, to obtain trained frequency domain speech data; and calculates power values of frequency points according to the trained frequency domain speech data, to obtain a speech power spectrum sample in a linear frequency domain. The terminal performs bark domain transform on the speech power spectrum sample in a linear frequency domain, to obtain a speech power spectrum sample in a bark domain.

In another embodiment, the terminal obtains the speech data sample in which the one or more consecutive packets are lost; performs Fourier transform on the speech data sample, to obtain trained frequency domain speech data; and calculates power values of frequency points according to the trained frequency domain speech data, to obtain a speech power spectrum sample in a linear frequency domain. The terminal performs Mel scale transform on the speech power spectrum sample in a linear frequency domain, to obtain a speech power spectrum sample in a Mel scale.

S404. Select a neural network model corresponding to a packet loss parameter or network state information,

the packet loss parameter being used for representing a packet loss situation of a packet loss occurring in the speech data sample, and may be specifically a quantity of packet losses or a packet loss rate. The packet loss rate may be a ratio of packet losses in the speech data packets. The quantity of packet losses is a quantity of packets that are consecutively lost in the speech data sample, and the quantity of packets is a maximum value in all quantities of packet losses. For example, an original speech data packet set includes speech data packets with packet serial numbers 1 to 10. If one packet loss needs to be simulated, one of the speech data packets with the packet serial numbers 1 to 10 is removed, or two nonconsecutive packets are removed. If a loss of two consecutive packets needs to be simulated, two packets with consecutive packet serial numbers are removed from the speech data packets with the packet serial numbers 1 to 10, for example, packets with packet serial numbers 8 and 9 are removed, and the rest is deduced by analogy.

Network state refers to a strong/weak state or a stable state of a network signal, such as a strong/weak network signal, or a stable (and strong) or an unstable network signal. Correspondingly, the network state information refers to strong/weak state information of the network signal.

When the network state information is the strong network signal or the stable network signal, the speech data packet is not easily lost during transmission; and when the network state information is the weak network signal or the unstable network signal, the speech data packet is easily lost during transmission. The terminal selects a corresponding neural network model according to the network state information, and may obtain a neural network model that meets a current packet loss situation, so that a lost frame power spectrum may be effectively predicted.

S406. Input the speech power spectrum sample into the neural network model for training, to obtain a trained lost frame power spectrum.

In an embodiment, the terminal inputs the speech power spectrum sample in a linear frequency domain, or the speech power spectrum sample in a bark domain, or the speech power spectrum sample in a Mel scale into the neural network model for training, to obtain a trained lost frame power spectrum.

S408. Calculate a loss value of the trained lost frame power spectrum by using a reference speech power spectrum, the reference speech power spectrum being obtained by transforming an original speech data packet of the lost packets in the speech data sample.

In an embodiment, the terminal calculates a loss value of the trained lost frame power spectrum according to a loss function by using a reference speech power spectrum. The loss function may be any one of the following: a mean squared error (MSE) function, a cross-entropy loss function, an L2 Loss function, and a focal Loss function.

For example, assuming that the lost frame power spectrum is S(i,k), and the reference speech power spectrum is S₀(i,k), a loss value L=|S(i,k)−S₀(i,k)|² or may be obtained by using the MSE function.

S410. Adjust parameters of the neural network model according to the loss value.

In an embodiment, the terminal back propagates the loss value to each layer of the neural network model, to obtain a gradient of a parameter of each layer; and adjusts the parameter of each layer in the neural network model according to the gradient, and performs training until the loss value drops to a minimum value or drops to a certain threshold, to obtain a trained neural network model.

In the foregoing embodiment, different neural network models are trained by using speech data samples with different quantities of packet losses, to obtain corresponding trained neural network models. Therefore, during actual application, when the terminal receives the speech data packets, if the packet loss is determined and a quantity of packet losses is determined, a lost frame power spectrum is predicted by selecting a corresponding neural network model, to effectively compensate for packet losses with various quantities of packet losses, thereby effectively improving the speech call quality.

In an example, an ML-based method is proposed in this embodiment to resolve the problem in the existing packet loss concealment technology. Because the ML such as the neural network that has a large quantity of storage and simulation units may be trained by using a large quantity of speech data samples, a speech signal at a position of a packet loss is better fitted, and a real signal is approached during continuous training and learning. Details are as follows:

As shown in FIG. 5, a speech data sample in a time domain (where the speech data sample is a sample in which one or more consecutive packets are lost) is obtained, and Fourier transform and bark domain transform are then sequentially performed on the speech data sample, to obtain a speech power spectrum sample in different bark sub-bands of speech frames.

The speech power spectrum sample in which one or more consecutive packet losses are simulated is used as an input of the neural network model, and an original frame power spectrum at a position of a packet loss is used as an output of the neural network model, to perform model training.

Under different quantities of packet losses, because neural network models have different fitting difficulties and fitting precisions, to obtain better fitting quality and higher efficient training, corresponding independent neural network models are used for training for different quantities of consecutive packet losses in this embodiment. For example, for a scenario of one packet loss, a neural network model 1 may be used for training and learning; and for a scenario of two consecutive packet losses, a neural network model 2 is used for training and learning, and the rest is deduced by analogy.

After the training of the neural network models is completed, the trained neural network models are applied to real-time service applications. As shown in FIG. 6, during a speech call, speech decoding is performed on received speech data packets, and PCM speech data obtained through decoding is buffered. While the speech data packets are received, packet losses are counted, that is, a quantity of consecutive packet losses is counted. When a packet loss occurs, a corresponding neural network model is selected according to a quantity of consecutive packet losses, and Fourier transform and bark domain transform are performed on buffered speech data, to obtain a limited quantity of speech power spectrums. During the Fourier transform, a previous frame of phase information of the packet loss is obtained. The speech power spectrums are used as an input of the neural network models, and outputted lost frame power spectrums are obtained by using trained neural network models, are next subject to bark domain inverse transform to obtain speech power spectrums in a linear frequency domain, and are then subject to Fourier inverse transform by combining the speech power spectrums in the linear frequency domain and the previous frame of the phase information of the packet loss, to obtain final restored speech signals. An amplitude of the foregoing speech power spectrum in a linear frequency domain is predicted based on the neural network model.

For a change of the Fourier transform and the bark domain, a specific process is as follows:

First, when a speech data packet is received, the speech data packet is decoded, to obtain PCM speech data. Then, the speech data is framed and windowed, and Fourier transform is then performed on the windowed speech data, to convert a time domain signal into a frequency domain.

For example, a window length of 20 ms as one frame is used, to select a Hamming window for windowing. The window function is as follows:

${{{win}(n)} = {0.5 \times \left( {1 + {\cos\left( {2\pi\frac{n}{N - 1}} \right)}} \right)}},{n\mspace{14mu}{belonging}\mspace{14mu}{{{to}\mspace{14mu}\left\lbrack {{- \frac{N - 1}{2}},\frac{N - 1}{2}} \right\rbrack}.}}$

Fourier transform is performed on the framed and windowed speech data, and the formula is as follows:

${{X\left( {i,k} \right)} = {\sum\limits_{n = 0}^{N - 1}{{x(n)}{{win}(n)}e^{{- j}\frac{2\pi\;{nk}}{N}}}}},{k = 1},2,3,\ldots,N,$

N being a window length (a total quantity of sample points in a single window).

After the Fourier transform, power values of frequency points are further calculated, to obtain a speech power spectrum according to a transform result. The calculation formula is as follows:

S(i,k)=|X(i,k)|², k=1, 2, 3, . . . , N, i corresponding to a frame number, and k corresponding to a frequency point index value.

After a speech power spectrum S(i,k) in a linear frequency domain is obtained, average calculation may be performed on power spectrum values in bark domain sub-bands according to 24 bark domains (where a frequency domain criticality is defined as shown in Table 1) simulated based on an auditory filter proposed by Eberhanrd Zwicker, to obtain a speech power spectrum in a bark domain. The formula is as follows:

${{S_{bark}\left( {i,m} \right)} = {\frac{1}{{f_{top}(m)} - {f_{bottom}(m)} + 1} \times {\sum\limits_{j = {f_{bottom}{(m)}}}^{f_{top}{(m)}}{S\left( {i,j} \right)}}}},$

m being a bark sub-band serial number, and f_(top)(m) and f_(bottom)(m) being respectively an upper limit of a cut-off frequency and a lower limit of the cut-off frequency of a linear frequency corresponding to an m^(th) sub-band.

Through implementation of this embodiment, a speech signal at a position of a packet loss can be better fitted, and a real signal is approached during continuous training and learning, thereby improving the speech call quality.
